Look up, rise up: for far above
Our palms are grown, our place is set;
There we shall meet as once we met,
And love with old familiar love.
(The Convent Threshold)

For which we waste our breath;
Love only doth not wane and is not vain,
Love only outlives death.

And had to do with goblin merchant men.
